Is anyone on /bant/ into ham radio, CB, etc?
I'm thinking of getting my general but I'm in an urban area with too much noise. Can portable HF setups be fun?

I recently watched a vid about catching satellites using ham radio, pretty cool stuff.

Hmm yeah working satellites could be fun. I haven't tried it yet. I think you need a dual-band setup and a fair amount of skill to find the thing and manually track it across the sky!

From what i've seen all you need is antenna and live feed of satellite's position. Tho i may be forgetting something.

I will look in to it!
Recently I have been watching videos of Parks On The Air stuff. Seems like an interesting way to get on HF. You can drive to a park, set up your stuff, and maybe bag a bunch of contacts. Seems like it could a thing to do at a campsite over a few beers.

it's not really a interest of mine but I was a radioman in the army so I've messed around with radios quite a bit

Cool! My buddy did something similar. Military people get some interesting gear to play with.

Oh hell yeah. I have a CB on my car and hear lots of that.
